The video is pretty cool, but the music sucks. It'll drive you crazy if you aren't careful.

Sir, YOU may have saved my career. That vid made me realize why the fuck im still in school, taking chem, math, phys, and CAD/CAM classes. Some times sitting infront of a PC for hours, you forget the fact that something real is being made at the end of the day. And the music rocks! They have a long ass track but thats what I have to listen to to be able to stay awake when Im sitting infront of MasterCAM for hours on end looking at a black screen with green lines.
In all seriousness, thanks a million bro :thumbsup

Good luck with the engineering degree. I don't have the patience for a long term degree like that. Hopefully this year I will get my ass back in college though.

That's awesome.
But holy crap, that techno drives me insane. Techno's good with variance, but not the same beat over and over.

Probably a good chunk of change. I'm curious to know if they recycled all the shavings or if they just throw it away.
